I do also have a 32″ reflector in my bag as well – just in case.

used it for fun, but was thinking of getting Nige to hold it at your wedding – some crazy shadows going on with the bridesmaids and Rachael… but he was on the ale by then… and so was I :-)

Can’t really think of anything else I’d add to your list – I’m just on the constant upgrade path – don’t need anything other than a new cable release
